Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017121640A1] The invention relates to a straightening press (20) for straightening concentricity or straightness errors in elongated work pieces, comprising centring means (21A, 21B) and a work piece (1) clamped between the centring means and having at least one coil region (W1, W2, W3) defining at least one core diameter (Di) and at least one outer diameter (Da) of the work piece and with a coil (2), such as a screw conveyor, in particular an extruder screw. The straightening press also comprises at least one measuring head detecting concentricity errors of the work piece (1). According to the invention, in order to eliminate concentricity errors in extruder coils and other elongated work pieces provided with outer coils, a guide rail (30) arranged approximately parallel to the axis of the work piece (1) clamped between the centring points (21A, 21B) is provided, and the at least one measuring head (10) has means (32; 32A, 32B) for the movement thereof along the guide rail (30), and the at least one measuring head (10) and/or the moving means (32; 32A, 32B) thereof has at least one control means (40; 40A, 40B) configured for maintaining a fixed distance (x) between the coil (2) and the measuring point on the work piece core (1A) during the rotation thereof.
